  • Who here has done the Pendle? It's scheduled right before the other two possible 600s I have booked but seems unwise to pin the 600 necessary for my FWC SR on that. I'm guessing it would be great for a two day de-lux right? I saw a video on the internet where a guy did it fixed so it must be doable - right?

    edit: he does say he nearly cried after Robin Hood Bay which I take to mean quite a lot of weeping

  • Just looked this up and it looks pretty savage fixed. Who was the person that did it fixed on YouTube?

    I’m quite keen to give Dean’s Slaithwaite 600 a go.

    At the moment there are no Scottish PBP qualifying 400’s in the calendar so I may have to use another 600 somewhere down south… which means if I qualify for PBP I may as well try and bag a fourth 600 for the Ultra Super Fixie Skidder award or whatever it’s called.

  • I did it as my PBP qualifier in 2015 (not fixed/fuck off). Justin Jones rode it fixed.
    It was/is everything it says it is. Still probably the hardest 600 I've done.

  • I did about half of it in 2019, that 300km was among the hardest I'd ridden, even before trying to describe how bad the conditions were that year.

    Even when you scratch up near Hexham it turns out the quickest way back to the start is still to ride it, so I ended up doing a tad over 500km anyway
